Shrapnel, you should open a petting zoo stocked w/ your gun collection. I would definitely make the trip and bug you for a fishing lesson while I was there.

Shrapnel, be careful what you wish for! Las Vegas to Bozeman 835 miles. Late fall wolf hunting near Bozeman, possible. What kind of powder do you need? Those cowboy shooting irons are amazing, all I have is the hat and some modern era lever guns. Thanks for the pics. If Travis shows up will he drink all the beer and steal my hat?

You need a Sako '06....and ditch the M70 if that's what it takes.
You do have some Finnish 222 Mag brass.....

Bob, I've done my best and longest shooting on game with my fancy variable left on 8x. In fact, I just left it there last season, even in wooded areas. 8x seems to 'fit' me.
Me too. Even in the woods I seldom go below 6X. QUALIFIER - In States where you have a 3 or 4 pt. minimum on a side, the higher X comes in very handy at times. One example, I have posted pics of a 6 pt buck with 17 1/2" inside spread. In Ark that buck would not have been legal w/o at least one eye guard. I watched that buck pushing a doe for quite some time before I could see anything other than crab claws. Probably would not have seen one of them at 4 or 6 X.

I don't think there is anything wrong with multiple rifles of the same caliber as long as they are different cartridges and 1/4 bores.
Just sayin'.... I hand load 25acp, 25-20, 25-35, 250 Sav, 250 Krag Ackley, 257 Roberts, 257 Roberts Ackley, 257 Roberts Ackley rimmed, and 25-06. Something's missing Clarkm. Ah, I've got it, where's the .256 Winchester Magnum? Really nice list though. I'm thinking more .25's are in the mix for me later on down the road. Right now for me: "30" caliber; four total(.308 and .312) two .30-06 one Sigarms, one Rem 700 (at Rem for trigger recall) 2 .303 Brit, one sporterized #4MK1* and one Ruger #1 .264 two 6.5x55, one military Mauser, the other a bbl for the Sigarms rifle above (does that count as another rifle?) Both of these are "shooters", imagine that, in 6.5x55. Whoda thunkit  .22 two in .22 LR, one Ruger takedown and a Nylon 66 Seeing as how Shrapnel included some revolver/rifle combos .257 One Marlin .256 winmag Levermatic with a companion Ruger Blackhawk One Kimber of OR 25-20 with a companion cylinder for the above Blackhawk I "need" a companion rifle in .357 Mag, maybe a Ruger 77/357 for my S&W. Then, I will almost feel complete. Until I get my hands on one of the Lipsey's .327 Single Sevens!  MD, I was quite surprised to not see multiple 9.3's on your list. Did I overlook something? Am I starting to approach qualification for living in a loonie neighborhood yet?

Seems like a good pair for same cal would include in a light, short guise paired with a heavier, long-barreled set-up. Excellent idea. One should also be in stainless/synthetic for bad weather.
What fresh Hell is this?
